Juicy Juice Fruit for All Project Give 400 Meals To Charity

We have kids in our community that go without breakfast during the summer time because during the school year they get free breakfast at school. In the summer time they don’t eat unless we keep our food pantry stocked with cereal or other items for their parents to pick up for them to eat. Of course this isn’t the only community that needs help, or the only need.

You can watch this Fruit for All Project Documentary Videowhich follows the lives of three children impacted by Feeding America’s produce program. It makes me really sad to know that children in the world or just within the US are going hungry. The reality of it is that over 16 million American children are food insecure which means they are at risk of going hungry, and just like in my community when they are out of school the risk goes up. 18.7 million children were without the assistance of reduced price or free meals last summer.

We have enough food for everyone, we just need to help those that need the help. Juicy Juice is part of a program helping children get fed this summer. They are calling it the Fruit for all project. Together with Feeding America and celebrity mom Samantha Harris they vow to get 35 million pieces of fruit in the hands of children and families in need.

How can you get involved?

Between June 1 and August 31, enjoy Juicy Juice! Each time Juicy Juice is purchased, they will provide a piece of fruit to hungry kids and their families. In addition, kids and their parents can log on to Facebook (Facebook.com/JuicyJuiceUSA and complete fun and engaging challenges to earn even more fruit donations.

I would love to be able to do more for my community- I do volunteer, but this would be great. I live by a Salvation Army that provides meals and a lunch bag to kids in the summer and know the need is great.

I’d love to win this because I try to donate all I can, but this would be just amazing to give since our unemployment is so high and so many families are having to turn to the food bank. The food bank is always in need of food.

I would like to win because I Volunteer at a church every single Saturday morning for at least 4 hours. I see first hand how many people will get to eat ( at least for that day). I leave every single time wondering if I’m doing enough. I’ll answer my own question. NO! I am not doing enough. If I’m fortunate enough to win this contest it will certainly be in honor of them. Thanks Bunches for this amazing opportunity!!! 🙂

Because I’m a mom and I can’t imagine being a mom who couldn’t feed my child. I know that summer time is harder for families that now have to feed their kids 3 meals a day when many have only been feeding them once. It’s a strain and ever little bit helps!

We often hear about how the local food pantry is struggling to keep up. I would love to help those locally. You never know when someone in your own family may need this and I would like to think it would be there for us IF that was ever needed.

This might be the most amazing giveaway I’ve ever seen on a blog. I raise money (now around $6K) every year for my local food bank and senior center with The Carol Brunettes as part of Figgy Pudding and would love the opportunity to give more meals to those in need.

I would love to win this giveaway to help out people who are having a bit of a hard time making ends meet on their own. Winning contests and giveaways has helped our family a ton this last year as we’ve gone through unemployment and a move to a new city. Maybe it could help somebody else out, just like it’s helped me.

There are so many people here in Arkansas that have lost their jobs and there are no jobs to replace them. Whirlpool, who has been here for years, used to be over 4,000 good-paying jobs and dropped to 2,000 in recent years and is closing it’s doors forever to move the jobs to Mexico. 2,000 more people will be hurting. The lines are getting longer at the food banks and they run out of food. Never have their been children standing in the line for the sack lunch. Now there are children. Even the people who have jobs are finding it hard to donate when it takes all they make to survive. I would love to be able to give these meals and more to our local food banks. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway!

If you have ever gone to bed hungry you make determined efforts to help others not experience this unneccessary evil. ECHO foodbank in Farmington NM has been helping residents including those on the impoverished Navajo Nation avoid hunger for many years. Four hundred meals will be a great thing for this area.

I want to win because I was once on food stamps and I know how difficult it can be to give your family fresh fruit and vegetables on that allowance Since my life has changed around I no longer need foodstamps so I donate food when I can
